I'll second everything said above. I just bought a 111,000 mile 1984 Carrera for $12,000. It has never been touched (including anything other than routine oil changes) and is 100% original. For your price, you should figure it will need a reseal and valves adjusted at a minimum and may need brakes, suspension work, and possibly paint. Up your budget to $15k and be very picky. They are out there, but be patient.
